Great post! Whether you lean more towards the logic or emotional side really depends on the focus of your blog. However, too logical / formal blogs may fail to “connect” with the audience. So, even if you are blogging about your business consulting services, for instance, you still need your audience to “know” and connect with you – the person and the voice behind the blog.

I think as long as you blog about what your readers are interested in, and find useful and valuable, your blog will be a success.

What I’ve also found is that as long as you continue to build your readership / audience, your readers will love your blogging and want more of it – regardless of your blogging style.

Thank you for the Spock Quote: “It is curious how often you humans manage to obtain that which you do not want” So true!

When I write, it’s all emotion. Once I hit publish, logic takes it from there.

I like your points very much, although I’d like to add one more thing and that thing is you must be laser focused, if you would like to be successful in blogging.

Having only recently started publishing regularly (although I’m a long-term netizen (old enough to use that term)) I’m driven by my passion, but I’ll certainly attempt to being in the logic to keep me going over the months and years.

Terrific Article!

Especially liked what you had to say about using logic to see the big picture before making hasty decisions that don’t fit in. Good advice.

Also think that implementing metrics to know when logical goals have been achieved is crucial.

As I learn to blog, knowing where to go and when I’ve arrived is probably more challenging than creating the content to get there.
